Events

21' With 1 assists to his name this season, Kevin Denkey is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.
26' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

29' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Lazare Amani on 29 minutes.

62' Alan Minda makes way for Yann Gboho at the 62 minute mark. A tactical switch from Cercle Brugge KSV.
